So when I was taking a picture with my front facing camera on my one it looks to be in some kind of fun house mirror mode... I was looking for a setting with it but I can not seem to find it... Basically when taking a portrait with the front camera if i move my face up or down it has a bug eye/ fun house mirror effect... Am i missing this setting??
Nope mine is also the same, if I'm taking a picture with the front camera it comes out long or strectched out usually at the top. I think it's due to the wide angle lense in the front facing camera.

Fortunately, I haven't had any focus problems with the cameras on T-Mobile's Note 4 as others have reported.
However, the Front Facing Camera is quite depressing in which too much movement causes the pictures to come out washed out and blurry. Taking pictures on the front facing camera requires a lot of steadiness; whereas when I shoot in video mode using the Front Facing camera, the live video playback on the display turns out smooth. Do you all experience the same phenomenon with the front facing camera? I know the front facing camera doesn't feature OIS, but still wondering what going here as my previous Note did not have camera issues.

you are not alone. i've found that in normal selfie mode, the viewfinder feels very laggy and the movement is both choppy and easily blurred.
to me this looks like a huge bug. if i change to wide angle selfie mode the movement is normal and smooth. so for me it seems like this problem / issue
is isolated within the normal selfie mode. i haven't tested out any different modes, but this is what i've learned thus far. very annoying to be quite honest.
surprised there's so few mentioning it. at least i kind of feel bothered by this sort of thing
No such issues. Both front and back are focusing quick.
Not having trouble with having to keep my hands steady for selfies. My hands shake from time to time and I let other people take selfies with my phone. Everybody was happy with their pics and putting them on Facebook. Even my dad who is a professional photographer.
I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better camera phone til the s6 or note 5.
They could always make it better of course. Always a good thing.
What roms are you guys using?
Has Anyone else noticed that the front camera is capable of taking much wider picture? ?? if you switch mode from SELFIE to Wide Selfie, you'll notice that the camera is capable of taking much wider angle picture. wonder why sammy didn't use this? regular SELFIE seems to crop significant amount of picture..
The front facing camera is usually used for taking photos of your face, this is why, by default it is set to normal mode, not wide.

Yeah that's been advertised since about two notes ago.
But you have to pan back and forth in wide selfie. Like a panorama.
i understand you have to pan it back and forth, but even not panning it's still covers wider angle than just regular "selfie". it would be nice to be able to capture wider on front camera. which is what Pixel 3 is doing.

You can always try the ported GCam.
Everytime I have to take a picture I must clean the lens honestly.... Even if I put it in my pocket for no more than 5 minutes I have to clean the camera lens that I'm about to use, I have no idea why they get so smudgy easily
Hi,
Is there a way to see if tele lens is working or not?
I have a feeling that it is broken and all photos are made using main camera.
Moreover when I shake phone I can clearly hear something clacking inside the phone. I knot it has moving parts but I doubt there should be any sound of it.
On good light place, put your finger in down camera, change zoom to 5x to 10x.
Your finger should appear into the screen

Yes zoom more than 5x and 10 x and cover the tele lens with your finger .And the clacking noise it's not a problem every phone which have a periscope lens does that because of the mirror moving inside.
Thanks guys.
It seems indeed my tele lens is dead... it doesn't do anything. I will have to sent it to warranty repair (if applicable) after lockdown is over.
I just got back my Samsung Tab S8+ from the Samsung service center for cracked screen replacement. All seems good until I start using its front camera for video conference, I can't help to feel the front camera was rather fuzzy. Upon taking a photo using the front camera, I noticed the file size is small (~400KB), and in the details, it wrote 3MP. I never took any picture with the front camera before, thus I am curious, is this 3MP an issue or it is actually normal? I remember the front camera should have 12MP resolution?
The rear camera is 13mp and the front one is 6mp.

The front is actually 12MP, the back is 13MP+6MP.
